Murmur by R.E.M.
Aug 19 2022

Laughing is a fun song. Catapult is also a bop. Overall nice background music, but most werent memorable.

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Aug 22 2022

Starting strong. Fast Car is a classic. Overall nice listening. Behind the Wall is good. Started to tune out halfway through.

That's The Way Of The World by Earth, Wind & Fire
Aug 23 2022

You’re a shinin starrrrr no matter who ya areeeee. Not a huge fan of the album, might just not be in the right mindset.

Queen II by Queen
Aug 24 2022

A lot of Queen I don’t know. It’s okay.

1984 by Van Halen
Aug 25 2022

That baby has a cigarette! If I heard Jump before this I would know it but have no idea it was Van Halen. Nice guitar throughout.

British Steel by Judas Priest
Aug 26 2022

I always like the sound of these heavy metal bands, but if I had to tell you if a random song was Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, or Metallica I could not.

Meat Is Murder by The Smiths
Aug 28 2022

It’s the Smiths. Didn’t pay too much attention but nothing stuck out.

Aug 29 2022

Otis has such a distinctive voice. Change Is Gonna Come is a beautiful song. A lot of covers though, not too many original songs.

Eliminator by ZZ Top
Aug 30 2022

Very rock. Not memorable, sorry.

The Specials by The Specials
Aug 31 2022

Definitely thought this was from like the 60s until I looked at the year. “I Can’t Stand It” sounds like a song they play over and over in a dystopian cyberpunk society where the authoritarian overlords are trying to give the veneer of happiness. In Do the Dog, the guy says “donkey” the same way Shrek does.

Blur by Blur
Sep 01 2022

Woohoo! That song is the most recognizable but I don’t know if I like it. They say it’s a parody on grunge. Hour long album. M.O.R. Isn’t bad. I was skeptical but it ended up being okay.

Sign 'O' The Times by Prince
Sep 02 2022

I was going to give this a four for the fun bops, but If I was Your Girlfriend kinda creeped me out and it moved into three star status. the rest of the album actually moved it back into four stars. Good stuff.

In A Silent Way by Miles Davis
Sep 03 2022

Doo da dooooo. Good music to play in the background while I play fortnite

Low by David Bowie
Sep 05 2022

I didn’t pay too much attention to it, I probably should have. May listen again today.

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Sep 06 2022

I didn’t expect to like Bruce Springsteen but this was a great album.

I Should Coco by Supergrass
Sep 07 2022

I liked this album. Don’t have much else to say.

Sep 08 2022

This album felt like it lasted 45 years. I don’t remember ever starting it, it’s been so long. What do I rate it? How do I rate eternity? How do I rate an album that has managed to evade the bonds of time? Probably two stars.

Guitar Town by Steve Earle
Sep 09 2022

Not my cup of iced tea

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Sep 10 2022

Smiths are always a little slow for my liking

Van Halen by Van Halen
Sep 11 2022

Very much enjoyed this

Songs From A Room by Leonard Cohen
Sep 12 2022

It was a pretty short album but I liked the first and last song. Feels like an album where if I gave it time I’d learn to like it a lot.

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Sep 13 2022

It probably is a historically significant album, but it didn’t stand out to me.

Rocks by Aerosmith
Sep 14 2022

Ok

Central Reservation by Beth Orton
Sep 16 2022

Great album, I really enjoyed this. My first listen was at the beginning of the day and it was nice to drift in and out of sleep with. The second listen was just as good, but awake.

Too Rye Ay by Dexys Midnight Runners
Sep 19 2022

Come on Eileen!

A Northern Soul by The Verve
Sep 21 2022

Just okay. Whenever I go to the artist, the album that this website picks is never their top album or even their second top album. Interesting choices.

Gorillaz by Gorillaz
Sep 24 2022

Didn’t realize Damon Albarn of the Blur created this band. I really ended up enjoying the album, listened twice.

Savane by Ali Farka Touré
Sep 25 2022

This would be good music for a movie. I liked it.

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Oct 02 2022

Ehhh, too many college vibes, I feel besides winter hymnal it’s too bland

The Band by The Band
Oct 03 2022

ehhhh
